KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — One of the most accomplished mountain guides on Mount Everest is not ready to hang up his boots.
Briton Kenton Cool this week scaled the peak for the 20th time, breaking his own record for the most ascents of the world's highest mountain by a non-Sherpa guide.
"Maybe another two or three more times," Cool told reporters after flying out of the mountain to Kathmandu on Sunday.
